Faucets? Sites? Reviews?

We are in the prep for a major home remodel. Thanks to this site, we will have a Toto!

Are there any sites out there with reviews of or is there anyone who can comment on faucets for both kitchen and bath (mostly kitchen)? We have looked at so many manufacturers on the web (Hansgrohe, KWC, Arwa, Franke ad infinitum). I worry about spending a lot of money without actually seeing the faucet and also because we don't know anyone who has a higher-than-Home Depot's-low-end-faucet to get opinions.

Third, this is the first time in our lifetimes that we can actually have a kitchen that we will be really happy with. I am tired of faucets that end up leaking, or that have a pull-out that barely pulls or that I can't get back in right.

Granted, it doesn't mean that the most expensive ones are the best. We don't know if it's worth it to spend around $500 or more on a faucet. That's why I asked my question.

I put in a Grohe Lady Lux (I think that was the model) in stainless. I like it, but it's only been 3-years. I'm not a pro, either. I liked the way it looked and the "feel" of the action. Delta has used the same basic "guts" for ages, so they've worked the bugs out, and you can buy replacement parts nearly anywhere, anytime. Some of what you pay for is the finish, some is the name. Seriously consider long-term replacement parts. Kohler is tough because they basically don't have any standard parts from what I hear. Finding repair parts are timeconsuming.
